+Barbara Szabo The China Study is awesome no gimmicks just science proof of which way we should be eating to avoid the diseases that are killing us all off prematurely. Also like The Starch Solution by Dr John McDougall. Now I can eat vegan without feeling hungry. And losing my overweight.

+Hey Nadine Huge Respect!! A question, why don't you eat any eggs? There are laying hens, which are treated fairly. Another question: do you eat honey? In my opinion not eating honey is not smart, because all the good reasons you named to go vegan don't relate to bees. e.g. they are not bad for the environment, actually they're good.

2016 is going to be a huge year for veganism and i'm so glad you are helping spread the message!! also, do you transfer your compassion for animals to things other than food? such as wearing/using cruelty free/vegan clothes, makeup, etc.? eating plant based is AMAZING but it never hurts to take those extra steps if you haven't already! :)

Sure am, all my new cosmetics and clothes are vegan to the best of my knowledge. Obviously I not going to throw away my older stuff which I am unsure about, I'll just use it up and be done with it. But yes, I'm trying best I can. :)

Recommend watching "Earthlings" "101 reasons to go vegan" and "cowspiriacy" if you're thinking about veganism! :)

We live with three vegetarians and 1 vegan and are transitioning. We know it is not widely accepted to "transition" but we believe that every bit helps. Appreciate how honest you were in this video about how easy it is to slip while traveling. Keep it up Nadine!

Thank you Nadine for the info. Definitely gonna be picking up some books and read up on health and food since I love reading and have already seen tons of documents.

You need to read GUT! I read tons of books on food too and loved that one. It's not just informational but told in a humorous way.

I've been vegan for 2 years and it was the best decision I've ever made ! I'm so proud of you for making the compassionate switch !

Just found this video and OMG girl! I have such a similar story. First for health due to allergies and then for everything else! This was a great story and explanation! Loved the vid! xo

I cried too when you mentioned your cat passing away, because I remembered when my cat got sick in March 2015, he had tumor in one of his kidney and the other was not functioning so, basically he was poisoning himself. So he was suffering so bad that my family decided to put him to sleep. I remember when I was at his last moments until I gave him to the vet, that feeling that I will never see him again was the worst feeling I felt so far, I still remember his eyes when he last time glanced at me. Eyes full of agony and fear. I miss him so much. And it will be almost a year, but I'm still feel that emptiness and sadness inside of me. Sorry for being so emotional. Btw, I'm vegetarian since 2010

I'm new to your channel and think you're absolutely awesome! To find out you're vegan is just a huge bonus :D I've been vegan for about a year and a half and can honestly say it's the best decision I've ever made. I used to be a huge meat eater, however, when I came to the realisation that, as you did, animals have the same range of emotions that we humans experience I couldn't go on and eat their flesh anymore. It changed from being it being "just meat" to dead bodies, flesh, muscle and tendons that are full of unspeakable suffering. Literally TRILLIONS of animals die per year because of the depth of humanities cruelty and our ego driven narcissism that says we are the top of the food chain. Bullshit! Just because I'm a human does not mean my life is worth more than another sentient being, whether they be in human or animal form. I believe we're moving towards a kinder more compassionate society. One day we as a species will stop this animal holocaust and will realise that underneath our body suits we all have the same spark of life within us ☮

Hi Nadine! I know I'm a little late commenting but I applaud you on your commitment and I feel the same exact way! Been vegan going on 3 years now and I am also lactose and tolerant, but It's been one of the best decisions ever, I love it, and when I travel it makes finding food sometimes challenging but also kinda fun!! The world is waking up to this lifestyle and there are way more options than ever before. Safe travels!

I went vegan with 2016 and I already feel sooooo much better :D

OMG I JUST SUBSCRIBED TO YOU FOR TRAVEL PURPOSES AND NOW I SEE YOU'RE VEGAN OMG I AM TOO I LOVE YOU :D ❤️

First, I am sorry for the loss of your cat companion. It is always hard losing a loved one. :( I happened upon your channel looking for beginner traveling tips and was pleasantly surprised to see that you are vegan also. Really love your honesty and you just seem like a genuine person. Anyway, just wanted to say hello and you have a new subscriber here. :)

Love your sweater!! Where did you get it?

I went vegan over 8 months ago and it's one of the best decisions I've ever made

I teared up so much when you were talking about the loss of your cat. I have had a rabbit for 7 years now and the thought of losing him, since our pets tend to have shorter lifespans than we do, crosses my mind quite often. To be able to create such bonds with animals is sure enough a great reason to make a lifestyle choice revolving around compassion for our fellow creatures of all species.

I love your bedroom decor!

Let food be thy medicine! Great video, Nadine! I've also been Vegan from September 2015. Having that compassion is beautiful! So sorry for your cat! Happy you found your new kitty too! Finding him was meant to be it seems! Being vegan while travelling would be an awesome vid! 😁

it was only a matter of time...

Hello Nadine!Or should I say Hey Nadine?Anyway,I'm just wondering if you're going to be doing a volunteer southern Africa trip this year.I love watching vlogs about the programs and I just gives me another reason to do well in school,get a good job (hopefully a biologist or paleontologist) and save money to go to Africa. I honestly think when I go on these programs,I'll cry with joy since it's been my dream for as long as I can remember.I'm not really an emotional person,but when I accomplish my dream I'm gonna be balling my eyes out. Africa would be a far cry from Wythenshaw, Manchester.

Love your sweater!!!! where is it from?

I know what you mean about how the compassion grows you feel so much for them when you are not causing the harm but rather watch others doing so!

I just bought the book "How Not To Die" and I'm already hooked!😃

Go Nadine. Our vegan community supports you!

I am sorry to hear that Tiger Lily passed away. I was just watching old videos of you and her a couple of weeks ago.

Thanks for posting this! It's so comforting to see someone travel the world and successfully maintain a vegan diet. I'm in the process of transitioning from vegetarian to vegan and I worry about what it will be like to find food while traveling. Maybe you can do a video on that?! :) xoxo

I also went vegan in September, although I really went vegan in the end of that month. It's the best decision I've ever made and I am vegan mainly for ethical reasons, health and environment come more as a bonus for me :)

I love the way how open you are in this video (actual tears in my eyes). I've just recently discoverd your channel and it really gives me hope that it is possible to travel as a vegan and not starve to dead. :p This is a great way of talking about veganism, lately I kinda start to hate talking about it, because of the denying and judging reactions I mostly get. (Maybe I'm doing it wrong.) I'm not judging anyone or doing anyone harm with my way of life. I think it's so brave to just talk about why YOU do this. I really enjoy watching your video's. You do a great job! Love it!! P.S. went vegan in september 2015 as well ^^ (thank you, Cowspiracy)

I've been thinking of slowly introducing veganism into my lifestyle, such as Vegan Mondays etc. Great video, thanks!

You explained it so well! Love you ♥

I am so proud of you for coming out. And at such a young age.

I am glad for such an open and honest video. I am not vegan or vegetarian, but it is good to see other people's perspectives I think. And I think it is only truly possible to understand other perspectives when someone expresses their experience and views in a non-condescending, honest, straightforward way, like you have. Thanks Nadine, your videos are always top quality ! :)

This video makes me so happy. Thanks for making it, I really enjoyed your vegan what I ate in a day videos :)

im surprised this channel hasnt grown bigger. great video

I'm the same as you, I went back and forth between vegetarian and vegan and then eating meat when travelling. But I feel so much better/healthier on a vegan diet, alongside doing it for the animals. I was wondering if you have any tips on travelling as a vegan? xx

That is so beautiful, the story about your cat. Lately I've really gotten interested in going vegan, and I want to do it someday. This video was so good, inspiring but still very down to earth and kind. :) You're awesome!

So happy you made this video Nadine! Thank you for sharing the story of your cat, truly inspiring to see how much compassion you have in your heart! As an individual who is inspiring to become vegan, this is another video that is pushing me to become fully vegan! Sending you love from Canada! :) xx

Thanks for making this video! I'm on my way getting slowly vegan completly and for the same reasons as you. This helped me to stay strong and motivated!

I was thinking about going vegan. but I'm a personal trainer. am worried about not getting enough protein. any suggestions?

This is so similar to what happened to me! I was on and off veggie/demi-veggie/-pescatarian for years and switched back and forth a lot just because of convenience. When I started university I was self-catered and just wasn't buying animal products then after a couple months I learnt about the health benefits and environmental reasons so was plantbased with some slip-ups for a while. I eventually connected with the ethics when a baby chick I was looking after passed away and I was heartbroken and crying about it for a month or so afterwards. I grew up by a forest and rescuing, rehabilitating and releasing wild birds was a big part of my childhood and a lot of them do pass away just because of shock as they've usually been attacked by another animal or had an injury or fallen out of a nest or something but for some reason this time was different and I've been vegan ever since. Totally agree with the increase in compassion, I've always loved animals but never saw a problem with eating them too until I stopped doing it and could appreciate how hypocritical I'd been without getting defensive about the realisation.

Wow Nadine, this is so amazing! I've been following you for a while and it's so great to see you embrace veganism. You expressed your views so beautifully :)

Ive been vegetarian for 6 years and vegan for 3. Like you, travelling was hard. In some countries options are abundant but in others not so much. Its the same as anything though, you adapt and you do the best you can. None of us are perfect and we all slip up but thats because we live in a world that is conditioned to use animal products and sometimes its unavoidable. But if you have your own kitchen and your own groceries then its easy as pie once you get going. Its totally a journey and once on the path you'll never see things in the same way again. Thank you for sharing your thoughts :) really enjoyed this video.

Yay Nadine! I've always loved your travel videos and now I love you even more knowing you're vegan! woo go girl

Could you please do a video of how to travel when vegan?! I plan on backpacking this summer and I'm a bit nervous about how to not avoid the culture while still eating Vegan. I am currently vegetarian and I have done that for 3 years but being vegan is difficult!

Loved this! Subscribed :)

Could you list all the food books you have please!

The "Just because we can, doesn't mean we should" was nicely put

I'm veggie...not total vegan yet as I find it really hard to travel whilst being vegan. I cant always afford to eat out at specialist restaurants and I don't eat bread or pasta so really I'm stuck with rice and potatoes plus veg. Any tips would be great...

I noticed the same thing since I've become a vegan, my compassion for animals has grown so much. Congrats on your vegan journey Nadine ❤️

where'd you get your sweater?

I'm vegan since August 2015 and I feel great with it, my mind and my body are in peace 🙏 as all have already said, it's the best decision I have ever made and I will for sure stick to it. Also I'm so sorry about your cat 😢 I just can't imagine my little dog going thru that, you have our support babe💕 I love your compassion and I hope you're doing well, love you😘

I am a flexitarian, I eat vegetarian/vegan on the weekdays. I have considered going full vegetarian and even vegan and I think it's something I will do in the future when I have more control over my own food purchases. The one thing I will say is I no longer consume processed meats or bacon and since I've started watching what I eat and eating better I've felt better with more energy, I've slimmed down, my skin feels clearer and I feel healthy and I feel that's the most important. :)

Hi Nadine! Bit of a random question but what are your thoughts on freelee the banana girl (if you know who she is). I'm honestly put off the thought of veganism because of her and how she pressures and shames people in the public eye to become vegan and basically feeds off the fame of other youtubers. I genuinely enjoyed your video and glad I gave this topic another chance. I'm sorry for your loss but I'm so glad you shared the story, definitely considering slowly becoming vegan.

hi Nadine! i see u put wheat belly on ur list of books. i never read it but i went gluten free on my own after watching Dr.Oz there was a woman Dr. who had the same symptoms as me. Its already been 3 years, i lost 50lbs. i am interested in eating healthier meals and eating less meat, eggs and dairy. i'm not ready yet to go vegan but i want to replace my meals a few times during my week with vegan meals.

Honestly, never have given any thought at all about vegan ism or even being vegetarian until now. I really thing going vegetarian is in my future for some of the reasons you've explained. And trust me, it's the last thing I'd ever thought I'd do. I love meat and fish! Being Vegan is a different story but I understand why it was necessary for being lactose intolerant. Having two kids on their own diets is also going to be a challenge but I feel like I can get through it, at least for myself, for now. so, thank you, for your perspective and insight, I actually feel enlightened. Thank you. With luck I will be able to update you on my journey ☺

What did you go to college to study? Are you using your major now? Or did you just decide to travel and do KZread?

So many congratulations for going vegan! It's interesting, I've followed you on social media for a while now (and absolutely LOVE your videos! - so inspiring and I can't wait to plan my next trip!!) but I always felt like the media I watch and follow to get inspired to follow my different passions (film, travel, veganism, etc) have come from separate places. It's so inspiring and exciting to see that you are vegan and doing the things that I love and hope to do too. I can't wait to see your future videos to get tips on traveling as a vegan :) I also think traveling as a vegan will open your eyes up even more to finding that compassion that exists among people (and animals) around the world. Thank you so much for sharing!!

I went vegan in September too !! I'm planning to go traveling next year I kinda accepted that I wouldn't be able to sustain my veganism ways hahah are there any places you'd recommend that being vegan is easier?

Love you Nadine!!!❤️❤️

So so so proud of you for going vegan and sharing your thoughts on it to everyone viewing this video, it was so soothing to listen, no hint of preachiness at all (which is great!!). I'm sorry to hear that about your cat, I hope you are in a better place now, and remember that everything in our lives happen to impart something to us. I see the sorrow in your when you speak about your cat, and I will keep you in my prayers.

Hey I love ya :D I miss ya you are epic. I gonna start watching you again. Idk why I even stopped....... t.t

I don't think I've ever been scared of ingredients, though, that might be because I've been schooled be chemistry majors before. Anyway, I eat flex, but that's more do to my IBS. For some reason oats triggers a few things and dairy does, but not eating dairy is like the easiest thing ever when you're in the US.

Can you do a video about how to eat vegan when you travel. Btw I just found you channel and I really like it :)

Congrats! Great video Nadine.

Nadine! I love this :)

That is cool nadine i hope that you can keep it up i am sure can :)

I subscribed because of this video. (Y) Way to go Nadine! I was vegetarian almost a year and went vegan at end of November 2015. :)

I've been vegan for half a year and I love to travel. Ever since I went vegan tho, I've been afraid to travel and not being able to find foods that I eat. Any tips on staying vegan while traveling??

I committed to the vegan diet since October 2015 and interestingly my reasonings for why I went vegan and why I stayed vegan is quite the same as yours. Cowspiracy changed my viewpoint on the dire state of the environment and I felt guilty for contributing to the degradation. But I realise that I do feel more compassionate towards all animals as you mentioned. I now can't see meat without thinking about the possible torture they went through. And plus I don't know if it's just me but I feel no menstrual cramps ever since I adopt this plant-based diet!

YES thanks for sharing Nadine! Please keep spreading the message :-)

Nadine, I've been a pescatarian for most of my life and have been trying to go vegan for years. At the beginning of this month, I decided it's time--I feel like shit all the time, I feel sad for the animals, and I claim to love the environment but I'm not doing the best I can to support it. It's gone pretty well. Eating out is definitely the hardest, and I've slipped up, too. But, in the past I would have fallen off the wagon so to speak because of one slip up and now I'm just more determined to let that pass and move on to making a good choice for me, the animals, and the environment the next time I put something in my mouth. I'm proud of you for sharing this video! XOXO

You will inspire so many people through being a traveling vegan! so happy for your new lifestyle!

What did you study at uni?

Can you make a video about being vegan while traveling? Because i really wanna go vegan but i feel like it is way to hard when you kinda have to eat what you can get and also wanna try the typical kitchen if you now what i mean

Hey Nadine, What are those three triangles behind you illumaniti?

What a wonderful video you posted. You really poured yourself into this and I think that is fantastic. You've realized that animals have souls too and that is confirmed in the ancient Vedic scriptures such as the Bhagavad-gita. Honestly, I am mostly vegan, but sometimes have occasional dairy. I could easily go completely vegan if I wasn't lazy. I was in India for nine months this year. In India, it is very easy to be vegetarian and very difficult to be vegan, because it's all lacto-vegetarian. Thank you very much. Your videos on travel tips were very helpful for my travels in India. Namaste!

I'm looking forward to travel advice that includes tips about where to eat plant based.

I've answered these same couple of questions in my videos "Why I Became Vegan" and "Am I Healthier As A Vegan?" My reasons and experience are similar and different to yours.

Hey Nadine :D I was wondering, don't you feel like you're missing out on a major part of the culture of the countries you visit because you're vegan? I mean, my idea of experiencing a culture includes eating local food, and most of the times it isn't vegan...I would love to hear your opinion (or anyone else's opinion) on that!

Actually heading that way. Wish me luck!

Ain't nothing like a good salad. I SAID AIN'T NOTHING LIKE A GOOD SALAD

You made me cry, because you are so passionned by this mouvment ! ♥ Thank you to be you, thank you to be vegan ! It's a beautiful history and I hope you extend your veganism at clothes, at cruelty free ! THAK YOU SO MUCH!

do you feel like you're missing out on anything while traveling as a vegan? since there are so many cultural dishes that involve meat?

wow.. well, i can't see myself as a vegan, no matter how hard i try! i mean, i was born and raised in Brazil where ppl love to eat bbq and meat in general.. but i loved to watch this video and understand how important this is in our life, being healthy. maybe you should give us some tips for beginners.. i'd love to know them :D

Still vegan?

I had already been vegetarian because of my mom's religion 7 years before I watched Cowspiracy. I found it so shocking that animal products could harm the environment so much. I then watched pretty much every other vegan documentaries on Netflix, and I was so shocked and disgusted with how the meat industry treats animals, even just to produce milk and eggs. That was my turning point-even my dad and older sisters went fully vegetarian because of my dedication. I'm so glad I found out about this at such a young age :) 13, vegan, and never felt better!

I have been vegetarian for 9 months trying to vegan. But I know how you feel about the animals I started crying when you did. I'm so glad that you have decided to be a vegan and travel because that's what I would love to do. So please make more videos about it. Love ya girl

I like that you acknowledge that humans can digest both animal protein and plant foods. So many vegans ruin their credibility by claiming that we cannot digest meat. And you are right, we no longer need to eat animal protein in this day and age as we can get plenty of plant foods to sustain us. The only question is, though it may sustain us, will it provide OPTIMAL health? Many believe that animal protein is necessary, at least for some of us, to function most optimally, particularly in the case of athletes. I am not saying I believe this, but it begs the question that should somebody sacrifice their dreams, their destiny in order to not kill animals? Of course their is the environment. Firstly, we must ask: is widespread vegan ism the only option? Secondly, isn't overpopulation the real problem? Why should we suffer inferior health and athletic/mental performance (if that is the case) because 'the powers that be' are not doing something to keep reproduction rates under control?...

This was an amazing video!

I remember once you ate lama meat in your video and I used to hate you! Now I think you're *AWESOME*!

you should write a book , and use "After the Death of My Cat" as the title!
